The Taylorville Correctional Center is a minimum-security state prison for men located in Taylorville, Christian County, Illinois, owned and operated by the Illinois Department of Corrections. [1]

The facility was first opened in 1990, and has a working capacity of 1221.

The cops who work there are complete jerks. Young arrogant, self righteous pigs who apparently have never made a mistake in any of their lives.

In their processing office they have a flag of the United States on top of the flag of the star of David, (which tells you which side they're on.)

The co's are so.overworked they sit on their asses for 8 hours watching Netflix and act bothered if an inmate has the audacity to ask them questions.

A majority of the co's call Asian people "Middle eastern" terrorist names, because they can't tell the difference.

"Uncle Tom" Karl Goss speaks how horrified his children are of cops, and admits some of his co workers are racist but really "not that bad of guys."
